Very sad. And the school systems are trying to turn them into woman to boot.

None of that means anything. How can you penalize people for not knowing something? Were they willing to learn? That's all that matters

@@Kinobambino I didn’t penalize anyone for anything. I simply made an observation.

Yep, the longer I live, the more I realize I don’t know as much as I thought I did. But, I love to learn!

Wise words from your old man. Sure he knows a thing or two about life.

Odin said almost exactly that in an old norse poem called Havamal. wisdom like that trancends time

Damn right, hope I make that hole as big as possible..

AK-47 ROUND: Hold my shell casing. Jokes a side, yes.

I'd just add that's because evil is already just the absence of good, not a thing of itself.

And that applies to so many things

learned this the hard way, especially from women

the way i look at it most people today aren't good at all. its kinda like all you wouldn't think of an older person as being stupid for not knowing how to use an iPhone. it was never taught to them they didnt grow up with it and it came around when they were past their prime. you don't consider a young person smart for knowing how to use iPhone because they grew up with it its all they know. same with morals, they were taught this ultra moralistic view of the world and they've never known anything else. they assume they are good people because they are just inherently good, the reality is they would be whoever they were raised to be, if they were born in Nazi Germany they most likely woulda been a Nazi. if born in the American south at the right time most of them wouldn't have thought twice about owning slaves. this is true of almost every person, but it seems so many people refuse to accept this reality. this is why stuff like moral philosophy or religion or spiritualism or family values or just anything that grounds you morally is so essential, without it we can stray so far from being anything resembling "good".

@@Jim-Mc ahhh that's why folks say your silence on a subject IS a stance in itself. Silence is compliance

​@@mrlancaster7997 For self development? Mediations from Marcus Aurelius I also suggest regularly taking time to think about yourself and how you act with friends/family. Are you being yourself, are you taking decisions with your heart or just to please others and are you kind to the people around you? Make sure to not lose yourself growing up. This is most important.

​@@mrlancaster7997 workout, meditate, be good to people, build a manly strengh not to abuse those who are weaker, but to protect them. Be proud of yourself and know that being a real man is a virtue and not every boy finds that virtue in their lives.

Why dangerous? I agree with the others though

​@deazylife8815 The ability to do harm is the only way it is possible to show restraint. If a man is incapable of doing harm, he can only be obedient, not good.

Very true

Gospel right here.

@@JackNapierRisus for me it helps to spend time alone and meditate

@@JackNapierRisus Patience takes practice. Take time to yourself to reflect and you will become more self aware of your actions in the present from that reflection

@@JackNapierRisus What helped me was to challenge my own perspective. I used to battle with a lot of road rage - constantly snapping on others that didn't drive what I thought was "the right way". Now, I'm terrible at arithmetic. I struggle with remembering numbers - which is kinda key to the whole thing... So I started imagining those folks on the road screaming at me while I try to do math. It became a point on the horizon I could look to for calm. Sounds strange, but this applied to so many different paths in my life.

@The Don I am also a black man who stumbled across his videos and it has been a life changer man. Seriously. We need more individuals like him but just hang in there and apply what he says...

It's doing what's right for all involved and that encompasses both the left and right way of viewing the same issues.

I hope you're doing all right

I am so tired of this one-size-fits-all advice. Mostly because it BS. You know better than to parrot what you read on facebook. Find some books. Read them. Sigh.

Ooh I like that

@@h0ph1p13 It's one size fits all for a reason, because quotes like these are useful. They're true for many. Regrets are far more painful to me, than being disciplined has. I have many regrets and they're haunting. I never regret being disciplined afterwards. I feel the pain of being disciplined when, say, I go for a run. I hate running. But I do it because I know the downstream effects of laziness are far more painful.

Thanks for posting this quote. Where does it come from, please ?

@@h0ph1p13 shit I fucking agree with you, it's annoying af

Adds to the character quite frankly. I like it.

Silence is complacency.

@ Dry Creek Wrangler School what do you care what they say? You know what's goin on'. Ignore em'. That's what me ma always told me. Actually she said, "Fuck 'em." :D

Still ignorant

taking the time to educate the ignorant, or hopeless know-it-alls, they listen but they don't hear. Just be calm and silent. Be silent 90% and only ask questions 10% of the time this is the 90-10 rule it would be good of your watchers to practice this and watch there lives change before there very eyes.

It's a journey amanali. Keep growing and be the best man you can be. You're going to change over the years for the better.

I feel you dude

We need it in this world more than anything right now.

If your dad wasn't in your life I doubt it was much you could learn from him anyway. Your mother deserves more credit.

Word brotha

@fresh living- very true. Well said.

reality is only but a moment in time, our lives doesn't have to be the mirror reflection of who or what we imagine ourselves to be but rather a construct of happenings that shaped us to be the hammer at the end of it all.

This IS social media, so WTF?

@Autumn Doe the big social media sites are a threat to society if you ask me. KZfaq is a little different in that it's more about watching long form stuff, the "social" aspect ie comments are just a secondary aspect. On twitter the echo chamber and "discussion" aspects are way more emphasized. More harm than good.

@@opuscat999 KZfaq is basically 21st century TV

Welcome back lol.

Respect to your father. I'm gonna use that with my kids.

You got got a good perspective and I appreciate it.

Pretty much did the same. Unsbbed all the "outrage" channels and whenever a news style video pops i click "Do not recommend". It's basically trying to find wholesome content.. and religions/Christian content. A few Vloggers of Village/Dacha life style in Russia and Ukraine

Savannah, not surprised you feel that way because I think these are human virtues he’s talking about. A lot of lads don’t have any of it these days and a few of these things, boys are being taught are bad attributes - IF you’re a boy. They don’t know what they’re supposed to be. It’s easier to just check out.

Good to know. I've been calm as far back as I remember. Good to know I'm doing something right

My karate sensei taught me the importance of being calm, especially in a fight. Do not give into anger and do not give in to fear. I think his exact words that he said to my class were "As long as you can think, you are always armed and you are always dangerous."

Be still and know. Doesn’t get more calm than that. There a power in the stillness that reveals all you will ever need to know.

agreed

Yes. Great content here. Close your eyes and Imagine being the Sheep Dog. Quiet, dangerous powerful and ready. Great advice. The Jodan Peterson video is here : kzfaq.info/get/bejne/p92Rf8uEzM-boWw.html (also a great video).

I second that, full of insight and wisdom without doubt.

Yep, this would be great.

very good idea, i'd love to hear her and her point of view.

Adding to that I'm curious of what mama thinks a woman's greatest responsibility is when raising a family.

That would be an interesting discussion.

Hey Reid, I’m sorry to hear that man. I haven’t experienced a loss quite like that but I did grow up without a solid father figure, so in some sense I can relate to that hole just left there. Time bestows venerability, they say. In times where we lack guidance or wish to be a real man’s man, I find peace in knowing it takes time. And since I can’t do anything to hurry along time, all we can do now is be patient. Naturally then, life and God’s gracious hand will form us into the man we’re supposed to be

Sorry for your loss. Your grandfather was in your shoes. He probably had a role model who he admired and followed. Do the same. Use the lessons he taught to be the man he was or more. Nothing is stopping you. Most men have the excuse of never seeing what it looks like. You have the example. Follow it. Best of luck. God bless.

Marcus was a entitled loser who never really lived life.

get married to a GOOD woman and start having children in your 20s. it will keep you focused on the right things in life. Go to a Christian church and find that woman.

​@@MsQ275 that is really good advice!

@@jakubatube what is a thoguht? Curious.

ROMAN CARLISLE: I am a woman, and have been married to the same fellow for 51 years and he always tells anyone who asks, how we made it work. He tells them that you must Communicate to each other. Find you a woman who thinks like you think. Discuss everything always. Hubby and I married after dating for only 6 weeks, and no we didn't know each other before that either, we did live in the same small community but didn't know each other. In that 6 weeks we talked about what our marriage was going to be like, I wasn't going to volunteer each other to do things, for each others parent. That causes a lot of discourse. But the best thing you can do in any relationship, talk about what you expect, and what you want from that relationship. TALK to that person who you are interested in, watch how she acts and reacts to life in general. Good Luck Sir!!!! I pray you find someone who will be a good fit for you, as we, hubby and I did.

I am in the same shoes as you brother, take it one step at a time, you'll get there. I'm 24. My biggest conflict currently is my health, I got EoE, can't eat much food and that means I can't maintain my weight very well. Money is tight, and stress is overwhelming to the point my teeth starting to fall apart. But, I know if I take action and work on myself and my mindset, things can and will get better. In December of 2020, I was homeless. Today, I'm on my own, making ends meet with a nice job. One hurdle done, but many more to go. Never give up.

My husband was 25 w our 2 kids (at the time), I was older. Know that those boots on the ground and loyalty pay WAY off. Just keep your eyes on the prize: doing something your fellow fathers won’t. Keep strong papa. It’s get good like a fine wine. Follow Christ and be good to mama. You’ll both go thru growth times that have to have adjustments by the other person. But eye on the prize brother. And keep it up! 💪💪💪

Having kids and paying taxes usually grows people up pretty fast.

Too true

Holly fuckin shit breh, you're making me feel like a pussy out here. God bless you and your kids, you just keep your eyes on the tiger and give your children the guidance they so desperately need in these times.

@Palhaço Triste dont be so bitter. There's a lot a woman can take away from this video as well. Try to appraciate likeminded people, regardless of their gender, and grow alongside them. Instead of looking for enemies everywhere you go

Being a hot head and having a short temper exposes one to the hard knocks of life, hard lessons are very impressionable and humbling on ones psyche....Plus as men we are just running on higher testosterone in our younger years, I reflect on the fights I got into when I was younger, and sometimes it was just ego and me trying to prove myself to myself, now I see it all differently, I have since learned how handle myself in a physical altercation, and now I take more pride and self satisfaction in identifying the situation and avoiding it before it gets physical, or the ability to deescalate the situation so it doesn't get physical.

Dude, that's a brutally honest thing to realise and admit - not an easy thing to do. Most blokes I've known in your situation play the victim. Most won't even admit this to themselves.

Word for word.That is exactly what i am feeling and thinking

Self honesty is part of the list for sure. I grew up thinking I didn’t want a family because the world sucks. Now I do want a family but I’m honest with myself I’m not ready in many ways and it sucks. We were all scammed in the education system dumbing us down about the reality of life.

@shawnsmith4692 and @thefaraon6079 It's been 5 and 1 months since you commented. I'm curious. Do you still feel the same, and what do you think you need to be the men you'd like to be?

Thank you for your service.

Cody Way: After 48 years of marriage to one woman(by the grace of God), I would say, look for and marry as smart & wise a woman as you can find who will put up with you. To that end, make yourself as tolerable as you possibly can. And overall, get to know God. No matter what you are able to accomplish by your sheer will, it will amount to nothing in the end if you reject Him. Make no mistake, the war on common sense and decency that is going on today is directed at the person of God & His image reflected in His creation, particularly mankind. Most of those involved in the attack against God don't understand that's what they're doing the unseen forces driving them surely do!

@@davidfong1565 utter truth, brother. 100%

you're unfamiliar with the modern problems young men have to deal with. you're telling them to look for a frugal woman meanwhile most of the women their age are busy taking pictures of their ass to post on instagram and sleeping with strangers from tinder. how are they going to limit their debt when it costs 160k to for a 4 year degree that's required by most adult jobs. and you need a 30 year mortgage for an average house. sorry pops it's a different world than the one you grew up in.

@@davidfong1565 Yes!

If I had a time machine to tell 27yr old me, of a similar mind, I'd say this: The path is the point. Learn everything you can about everything you can, help wherever and however you can. That's it. That's all you need to do. Anyone telling you that you should be doing this or that by this age, or certain material things to acquire "to be successful" is selling something. Explore, discover, create, help along the way. The rest will take care of itself.

I don't envy you. I'm 2 decades older than you, so I grew up in a different age. One of skepticism and self education. I have, in the last 5 years, lost much of my material wealth due to the oppressive times we live in. I would not trade that for subservience to evil.

@@bikerbobcat I can't thank you enough. My birthday is due in a few days and I have been terrified. I will be 27, and your comment couldn't help enough. "The path is the point" brought me to tears and I felt sort of realisation, looked up from my phone and just gazed Infront of me while little details I've missed for years rushed towards me. Everything was suddenly fascinating beyond imagination and while I was weeping I really felt that there's no destination to be reached and you gave my whole soul comfort.

You have shown wisdom in your words and actions. Life was meant to be enjoyed through experiences not the accumulation of things. Cheers to you mate

Why did you move from the south to this deteriorating state?

May I recommend that you consider letting go of the Smartphone and return to using a flip phone. Declare yourself on a Fast of the news. Stop looking at the news for 30 days. Then on day 31 check in with yourself and ask yourself how your really feeling. My hope and belief(if you've stayed away from the news) is that you'll feel a good deal calmer. In today's world with a 24/7 news cycle we have to make more conscious choices about how much "bad news" we let into our lives. My definition of Bad News= News about situations you can't do anything about.

It is the result of moving to a very toxic, fake environment.

The world is crooked, and we don't belong here. We are from somewhere else, like Jesus said

We are in this world, not of it.

If you dont mind, I'd like to share the Gospel with you since I love for you to make it to the kingdom of heaven. You seem like a lovely person and I just love to share it with you. God created the universe and earth in his divine image along with that he created man and women. Adam and Eve who we're were the first people to live along side him in harmony. But when man was tempted and ate of the fruit of God and evil we lost everything and sin came into the world through them. God seeing man fall into such despair and destruction through our sins, later on made Jesus christ in order to teach us his ways in order to reach his kingdom. Jesus died the death we all deserved but he was the sacrifice that played a role in order to have all our sins forgiven by God and no longer have the need to sacrifice animal's in that place. Jesus laid dead for 3 days and rose up in the 3rd day by the spirit of God proving that the sacrifice was accepted. If we choose to believe and accept jesus christ as your lord and savior, your sins will be forgiven and you will rejoice in paradise along side him in heaven.
